We are looking to have a small yet potent gathering of Bangalore's top Social Media junkies :) If you blog regularly and are on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Foursquare & Youtube, then attending this meetup is a must. Remember to be in the first 50 registrants.

Social Media Experts will each present for 15 min. and will cover the four leading Social Media channels:

3. LinkedIn - Shyam S, Catalyst Labs
4. Foursquare - Preetham Venkky, Catalyst Labs

Startup Showcase will feature three start-ups in Social Media. The presentations will be Pecha Kucha style i.e. 20 slides 20 seconds each. It will exciting to see presentations being made in a short time span.

Photo Booth Sessions will be used to snap candid photographs of all the attendees to be published on Mashable's Facebook Page and Flickr pool.

Catalyst Labs will host the meetup by extending the venue and taking care of all the arrangements. Oh! and we have sufficient parking all around :)

    @All - Thank you all for registering. We look forward to seeing you at the Meetup. Please refer to the Google Maps location for directions to the venue. We are situated off the Koramangala Inner Ring Road and hence easy to locate.

    While Meetup.com will allow you to add your name on the site; we have finalised our roster based on those who have registered so far (Midnight, Tuesday, 29 Jun 2010). Unfortunately we will not be able to accept any more registrations this time.

    @Vivek @Janvi - Actually Vivek is right. But on ground we will be taking into account only registrations made before midnight today. Any registrations post that will NOT reflect on our roster at the registration desk at the venue hence will not be accepted.

    Posted by Preetham Venkky June 29, 2010 at 11:56 AM
  • Vivek Rp's Photo

    @Janvi They Can't Close It. Because There Is No Option To Do Like That In Meetup Everywhere.

    Hi Preetham, I have registered myself. To my surprise, you have not closed the registration as you told before. That's great to me since I am able to register myself for the event. I will surely be there. Cheers.

    @Preetham, what Rohan says is, does signing up using Facebook qualify as registration?

    Hi Preetham, i'm guessing signing up for the meetup is the registration, or is there another process?
